How long do I have to stay in this same line that's not moving”? I kept asking myself repeatedly. I've been standing here for close to 3 hours but yet nothing has changed and I'm getting pissed off already.
few hours ago
[pause] So before I continue my name is Samantha and you might be wondering how I got into the situation where I have to stand in a long queue waiting for my turn. Let's get right into it.
So there’s this concert coming up that I badly want to attend, and I had to persuade Mom for a long time to let me go but she wouldn't even listen, always busy with her work and never having time for me which was very annoying but I didn't care.
Samantha: Mom please just let me go for this concert this once, not like you're around to stay with me anyways
Mom: Samantha I've told you that you can't go alone, it's too dangerous and I'm not ready to lose you so forget about it.
Samantha: Common mom I'm not going alone, I'm going with Rachael and Loveth and I promise to be safee
Mom: Baby I can’t let you go besides you don't have the ticket how would you get in?
Samantha: Mom getting the ticket is not an issue, I just have to the store where the advert was placed and I'll get my ticket there. Please Mom, please.
Mom: Okay baby, I’ll let you go for just this one and that's it, I’ll transfer some money to you and make sure you're with your friends
Samantha: Thank you, Mom, I love you so much.
I hurriedly left Mom and went to my room to call Rachael and Loveth and told them about the update they were so happy, so we agreed to meet up and get the ticket together.
On getting to the store we met a long queue and I almost lost hope of getting the ticket but Rachael insisted that we wait and get it
Racheal: Common guys, let’s wait i doubt it going to take long
Loveth: Are you sure about that Rachael, cause this queue looks like it's going to take forever.
At this point, I didn't know what to say I just decided to wait cause I wanted to go to the concert.
One hour into waiting it was as if the line wasn't moving but we were seeing people that were going and coming out with their tickets. At first, I decided to think that probably they have booked it down and they just came to pick it up.
My phone buzzed, and I think I dozed off for a bit cause the buzzing of my phone got me startled and when I checked the time, I discovered we had spent three hours in this place, and still yet nothing was improving, I was so devastated at this point. Just then I saw two sets of ladies coming in and they just went straight in so I decided to follow them, only for me to see the staff that were supposed to be selling tickets to us just dining and playing wasting our precious time, I saw them gave the girls their tickets and they just left smiling, this made me angry and I walked up to them and gave them a piece of my mind
Samantha: Hello there, I saw that you gave those girls that just came in their ticket and other people here have been waiting for a long in that queue with no one attending to us, that’s not fair at all
Staff 1: Hey girl, you need to calm your voice down what’s wrong with you? If you can’t stay on the line then we can’t attend to you
Samantha: Are you kidding me? I’ve been here for the past three hours and that is all you have to say? If you know you’re not selling the tickets you let us know not keeping us here for nothing.
At the time, the noise started attracting others who were in the queue, and before we knew what was happening the outburst escalated and the people started ruining everything, just then security came and escorted everyone out, and we were not able ti get the ticket anymore.
I and my friends were so angry that we didn't get to go to the concert anymore and the concert was happening that night.
But luckily for us, a guy walked up to us and told us we could view and watch the concert online and he gave us the link. Though it will not be the same as watching in person it's still something.
Thanks for reading❤️❤️❤️
